presented by Fox Sports Kansas City
Since 1968, the Kansas City Royals have embarked on the annual Royals Caravan. In January, the 2012 Royals Caravan presented by Fox Sports Kansas City traveled to communities across the Midwest. Current and former Royals players, broadcasters and front office personnel joined Royals mascot Sluggerrr for this off-season tradition.
Thank you for all the Royals fans who joined us on this year's Caravan! You can review the 2012 Royals Caravan schedule and coverage below.
